I do believe you mean RIGHT triangle when you said perpendicular triangle.
A right triangle has two legs and a hypotenuse.
The area of a right triangle is 1/2 * (first leg) * (second leg)
How do you determine which ones are the legs and which one is the hypotenuse?
The hypotenuse is ALWAYS the largest number. So, choose the 2 smallest numbers.
